The document discusses the Lean Startup methodology, which aims to help startups build products that customers want by iterating quickly and gathering feedback. It outlines the basic tenets of Lean Startup, including avoiding waste, only building what is needed, and learning directly from customers. For software projects, the key building blocks are customer development, using commodity hardware/software, and agile development. For non-software projects, the analogous building blocks are customer development, outsourced services, and agile business development. The document also provides examples of how to apply Lean Startup concepts over a weekend by identifying problems, markets, and potential early adopter customers to interview.

Editor's Notes
- Ask people to raise their hands if they have started a business. Ask them to keep them up if the plan they had in mind for the business changed after launching
- Give descriptions of our businesses. IT: Basecamp Web-based project management application Non-IT: Residential Wind Turbines
- Based on lean manufacturing
- Wouldn't it be better to know that customers will be willing to buy your product after the weekend instead of the reverse after spending months building your product?
- Focus on your customers What are the problems you think they have?
- Keep segments SMALL A customer is someone that pays for your product
- We are a Tucson based energy company and are currently working on a new service to help single family home owners reduce their energy costs. We are specifically looking to build small wind turbines. I would love to get 30 minutes of your time to help us understand your current green energy use. I'm not selling anything, just looking for advice. Intro Demographic Questions Tell a story (problem context) Rank / validate needs (rank, don't need, nice to have, must have) Ask for referrals
